He’s not Chuan. Even a few men might not be able to beat him.
“Xiao Yishan, don’t think I’m afraid of you…” Zhao Shugen’s words were not yet finished when there was a “bang” sound, and a cloud of dust was raised outside the courtyard. Shugen was actually thrown out by Xiao Yishan, and with just one arm, he tossed the man out.
Everyone was stunned for a moment, thinking that Yishan’s strength was too great!
“Ouch!” Shugen howled in pain.
Those relatives from the Zhao Family who wanted to help saw Xiao Yishan’s gloomy face, the mountain-like strong figure, and the terrifying scarred face…
Those who wanted to speak up were frigh tened into submission.
Xiao Yishan’s eyes fell on the Shi Family’s second son and third son, “Don’t think I don’t understand the situation. Your older brother, Shi Cai, has a nasty mouth. My wife walked past him, got past him, and your brother deliberately blocked her way, complaining that she stinks.”
“Your wife really is…” Shi Fang wanted to say something, but Shi Mu pulled him back to prevent him from speaking the wrong thing, “Since the incident has happened, my older brother was kicked down by your third brother and can’t get out of bed. It will cost dozens of taels to treat the injury. Your family needs to compensate for the medicine money!”
“Dozens of taels!” When everyone heard this figure, they all looked at the Shi brothers like they had seen a ghost. It took only dozens of taels to buy a beautiful woman, and they were asking for too much. Considering the Xiao Familv’s situation, everyone had heard from Doctor Sun that the wife of the
Xiao Family got sick yesterday and spent one tael of silver for medicine money. The Xiao Family probably didn’t even have a few copper coins left.
When everyone thought that Xiao Yishan would be outraged, he only said, “Simple. Chuan was also beaten down by your brother and can’t get off the bed, half of his life is gone, too. Your Shi Family should also compensate for dozens of taels.”
“Who are you fooling? Didn’t Chuan go with your wife to the village well yesterday…” Shi Fang didn’t believe it at all.
“On the way back, Chuan realized something was wrong,” Xiao Yishan lied without changing his face. “Yesterday, many guys came to my house to buy a hunt and saw Chuan injured. Chuan has internal injuries, he’s been lying on the bed, unable to move. He couldn’t even crawl off the bed when my wife tried to drown herself. ”
Although Doctor Sun had checked on Chuan last night, he hadn’t diagnosed Chuan. Considering Doctor Sun’s character, he wouldn’t gossip even though he wasn’t familiar with the Zhao and Shi Families.
“I don’t believe it…” Shi Fang wanted to say something.
Xiao Yishan pointed at the room, “Go in and see for yourself.”
Shi Fang, Shi Mu and a large group of villagers walked one by one into the Xiao Family’s second bedroom, only to see Xiao Yuchuan lying on the bed, moaning in pain. His voice was weak, and his face was swollen like a pig’s head, they could hardly recognize him.
“Oh dear, Chuan’s injuries look much more severe than Shi Cai’s!” Aunt Zhang was taken aback.
Another villager said, “How could Shi Cai beat Chuan like this? No wonder he didn’t go to the riverbank even when his wife tried to drown herself, which is a matter of life and death…”
“You guys from the Shi Family should pay for Chuan’s medical expenses instead…”
“Who would’ve thought that Chuan wouldn’t ask you for money, but you guys are here to extort it… If the Xiao Family was wealthy, it would be fine, but under these circumstances, you guys are going too far…”
When everyone saw Chuan’s miserable condition and the Xiao Family’s logic, they all sided with the Xiao Family.
Xiao Yishan stared coldly at the Shi brothers and said, “Do you want to find a
doctor to see whose injury is more serious? Your brother still has half of his life, right? Chuan’s medical expenses might not even be enough for dozens of
taels…. “
